On 17th July 2008, former Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Al Gore gave a landmark speech in which he raised the bar on the political response required to solve, not only climate change, but also resource wars and rising energy prices. Gore's challenge is for US to commit to renewable and clean energy sources within ten years.
